OK, I looked at all 100 plus pics at the web site. I am a WW2 history fanatic. I can kind of understand why the film was never developed years ago. There is almost nothing going on, seriously, except for G.I.’s getting ready to be de-mobilized to be sent back to the states, and waiting in line at the chow hall. The WW1 French Renault tank with WW2 German markings was kind of interesting. It was nice to see some of the old WW2 wooden barracks, I lived in some of those for a while when I was in the Army 40 years ago. But all in all, this group of pics isn’t going to change history.

These are snapshots.

They look like the pictures I’ve seen in scrapbooks for years. Without some type of caption they mean nothing.

Look at someone’s vacation pictures, even today, and they are the same thing.

Says a lot for a little composition and some understanding of photojournalism.

“But all in all, this group of pics isn’t going to change history”

don’t think it was meant to change anything,
title of thread sez 31 Rolls of Undeveloped Film..Not, fantastic pictures of WW II never before scene.The link if followed will show its more of an archival thing for this producer and about black and whites done by amateurs not photo journalists as alluded to in post 58
